The point earning system is great. I don't think there would be many guys writing great reviews without it.
And it makes sense, because everyday I log in I normally check out the store, too...adding stuff to my wishlist^^

The reviews section is full to bursting point of utter dross. There are about 100 reviews TOPS i would trust in there to be from people not trying to 'trick' the flaggers that their review is of any substance or worth. The only reason its not cleaned up is simply because there arent enough hours in the day to even make a dent in it since the staff went on exodus.

It doesnt also help as well that you can't flag crap easily. You can't just click on a user look through his inane crayola dribblings and flag his reviews. No no! you have to find what he reviewed, go to the review then find his review in amongst all the other detritus and then flag it, then wait for the page to reload, then go back to his or her member profile and do it all again.

Someone needs to code something where not only can we say this review stinks, but also where we can immediately flag it when it crops up in the summary listing.

Honestly, its hard to say this, but the worst thing about this community right now, is well, this community. I mean even when we tell people we are sick to death of point whoring jerks, they swim in like zombie goldfish "did someone say something about points? How can i get more points? I wish i had more points?"

The experiment failed. I'm sure everyone on this site is nice and decent. but dangle something in their face (for contributing to the community), and they turn into a jackass.

Did you miss the point about contributing?

"wait did someone say something about points?"

"hey! if i order something and then return it, will i get more points?"

"if you make 3 reviews a day you can earn points!"

"i wish i had more points!"

YOU IDIOTS ARE MISSING THE POINT!!!

"yeah, points are great, they really make you contribute to the community and you get all these great reviews from them".

Is there a way to earn back the ability to post after you've been blocked, because I was blocked a while back after posting reviews for all the new gear I got( I guess they were shitty reviews) and now I can't post anymore reviews. So basicaly I was wondering if there's a way to get a reprieve.

Are you serious? your not going to get a point for logging in!!! Why did they change to Trusnow!!

Really?

Doubt that you will get that privilege now. Although im pretty sure you can still post reviews, or are you just doing it for the points?

You could ask the staff members about this, but i highly doubt it. Good luck.

pm the staff they could help you with it. From reading some posts about it they may or may not let you have the privilege to earn points for reviews again.

Honestly I don't mind not getting points for logging in. If I get points that's cool, I guess more incentive for hanging out talking to people, but shouldn't that be the idea in the first place?? Instead of it being 5 points max for 5 thread posts, why not like every 3 posts you get 1 point? That way you have to keep up a conversation on a thread to continue getting points. I know I don't have a lot of posts, but I can't spend my whole day on the site, I wish I could haha but between school and work it's nice to unwind to. Like hey I'm home for the daily giveaway I'll give it a go and hit up the chatroom, but really I see the same people type in the chatroom everyday and it kind of sucks that theres what, 500-1000 people and maybe 40 or 50 actually talk? I wish more people would post on my meet up to drive to Mt. High or my question about boards. I don't mind music posts and stuff, gotta start fresh sometimes, but yeah there are a lot of pointless ones.

If i havnt hit the 200 pnts to get the 10% but put in an order that puts me into that range will i get the discount on that purchase or only on the next purchase? i am needing to put in a pretty big order and could really use a little help- hint hint please can i have a discount?

The long and short answer is: next transaction and no, you can't have a discount unless you follow the rules

ok so I bought about 150 dollars worth of stuff from you guys before i got a sierra snowboard account is there any way I can apply the points i should have earned from that purchase to my account?

Unfortunately there has never been retroactive points awarded when you weren't signed into an account. I mean, you could associate a paytype, or address to it, but that would be a lot of work to make it easier for people to get discounts.
